What it does
Standard WooCommerce variations cover the basics, but stores that sell one product in several sizes, colors or styles often need to record more about each option. This plugin extends the variation editor so you can add as many custom fields as you need to each variation. You can group fields under headings, set default values and write descriptions for inputs, which keeps the product editing screen tidy and makes setup easier to follow for anyone managing the catalog.
On the storefront, the custom information appears only after a customer selects a specific variation, so the product page stays uncluttered until the details are relevant. Fields follow native WooCommerce styling and your existing theme for a consistent look. If you want variation details somewhere other than the default spot, shortcodes let you place that information elsewhere on your site. The plugin requires WooCommerce and is built to work alongside well-coded themes, page builders and other IconicWP plugins.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores selling products in multiple sizes or colors
- Store managers who need extra details per variation
- Shops wanting variation info placed elsewhere via shortcodes
Features
Unlimited variation fields

Shortcode placement
Use shortcodes to display variation custom field information in other places on your site, giving you more control over where details appear.
Defaults and descriptions
